Augustus Brine (1769–1840) was the son of Admiral James Brine of the Royal British Navy, by his first wife, Jane Knight. At the age of thirteen, in 1782, Brine enlisted in the Navy as a midshipman aboard the "Belliqueux" under the command of his father. In 1790, he was made lieutenant and, eight years later, he became a commander. During the War of 1812, he commanded the "Medway" and successfully captured the American brig "Syran." He was named rear admiral in 1822. This portrait of young Brine was painted in 1782, seven years after Copley had arrived in England.

Choose your material

For every fine art print we offer a range of different materials & sizes. We allow yout to choose among the following variants:

• Metal print (aluminium dibond): Aluminium Dibond prints are prints on metal with an impressive depth effect. For the Direct Aluminium Dibond option, we print your selected artpiece on the aluminium white-primed surface. Colors are luminous in the highest definition, details of the print are clear and crisp, and you can perceive the matte appearance of the art print surface.
• Print on acrylic glass (with real glass coating): A glossy print on acrylic glass, which is sometimes referenced as a plexiglass print, will change your favorite artwork into amazing décor and offers a distinct alternative option to canvas and dibond fine art replicas. With an acrylic glass art print contrasts as well as details become exposed with the help of the very fine gradation of the picture. The acrylic glass protects your chosen art replica against light and external influences for several decades.
• Canvas: A printed canvas, not to be confused with an artwork painted on a canvas, is a digital replica applied directly on cotton canvas. It produces a exclusive impression of three-dimensionality. Your printed canvas of your favorite work of art will provide you with the chance to turn your personal fine art print into a large size work of art as you would see in a gallery. How can I hang a canvas print on my wall? Canvas prints are relatively low in weight. That means, it is quite simple to hang your Canvas print without extra wall-mounts. Because of thatcanvas prints are suited for any kind of wall.
• Poster (canvas material): Our poster is a printed cotton canvas with a slightly roughened surface structure, that reminds the actual work of art. Please bear in mind, that depending on the absolute size of the canvas poster print we add a white margin of something between 2-6cm around the print motif to facilitate the framing.
